Paolo Urio

China, the West and the Myth of New Public Management (eBook, ePUB)

Neoliberalism and its Discontents

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Evaluating the results of new public management (NPM) reforms in both China and the West between 1978 and 2011, this book shows that despite substantial improvements in economic efficiency in both cases under consideration, there have been considerable negative impacts on the distribution of wealth, access to public services, levels of poverty, and the incidence of crime. Further, this book explores the different results of NPM in China and the West and the conclusions Paolo Urio draws have timely significance, as he suggests that China has been able to change its policies more rapidly and thus more effectively respond to the challenges posed by the current economic crisis.
